Fun Facts about Ryker & photos

I have had lots of requests for some fun facts about our little Miracle Ryker, so here we go-

As of today, with Ryker being exactly 13 months, 8 days old, he weighs in at a little under 6KG which is approximately 12lbs. He is wearing 3-6 month clothing, depending on what clothing it is, some items he fits better in 0-3 months. He has lost a lot of weight in the last two months with his last two caths (He used to be almost 15lbs) He is currently right about the size of the average 4 month old baby & LOVES to be cuddled just like them too! He has never worn shoes, so I'm not sure what size he would wear if he did. He has had 2 major haircuts, the first one being about 3 1/2 inches off & this last one about 2 inches (He definitely has no problems in the hair growing department:) His favorite toy is either his mobile or his Sophie Giraffe, especially when his siblings are squeezing it wildly in his face :) He loves staring into the soul of whoever is lucky enough to be holding him & if he is in the mood he will tell you all sorts of stories too & smile the entire time! On April 11th he broke his first tooth....his first tooth being his right upper molar & now this morning he broke his 2nd tooth, his right lower molar (Poor baby boy!) The biggest thing with Ryker is he LOVES company! He loves to be held, snuggled, talked to, bounced & loved to bits & pieces & no matter what he gets all of it ALL THE TIME!! There is always someone fighting over holding him :) ~ Rachel
